said inlet beirn, afterward permanently sealed in such manner that thesealing cannot be broken or counterfeited Without detection. 45lin'operation the original contents may be poured out by removing thecork O and holding the bottle in the position indicated in Fig. 3, inwhich one channel-for instance, E- serves as an outlet for theliquorandthe other channel E serves as an inlet for the air to enter the chamherll, allowing the contents to be discharged. If an attempt be made to refill the bottle, the first portion of the liquor introduced when thebottle is held in an up- 5 right position, or nearly so, will sealtheuppermost channel, such as E, Fig. 4, prevent ing the escape of air fromthe chamber ll, making it impossible to fill the same. Even To all whomit may concern:

lie it known that l, EDMOND EODIER, asubject of the Queen of GreatBritain, and a resident or? the city, ceunty,,and State of New 'Yrork,have invented certain new and useful improvements in NomReiillableBottles, of which the follogvingis a specification.

lllly invention relates to non-refillable botties designed. for thepurpose of preventing so the fraudulent substitution of inferior liquorsin. bottles provided with labels or marks desgnating the quality of theoriginal contents.

liliy'invention consists in a novel construction oi bottle adaptedllyinternal formations r5 to permit the extraction, but prevent theintroduction ol' spurious liquor, owing to the action of air confined bysaid formations.

Referring to the accompanying drawings, l ig'ure 1 represents a verticalsection of a tle embodying my invention. Fig. 2 is a cross-section at a:2:, Fig. 1. Fig. 23 represents, on a smaller scale, the operation ofpouring out the contents from the bottle. Fig. a represents the mannerin which the air is conlincd'whcn an attempt is made to refill thebottle.

The bod y ll. of the bottle may be constructed in. any suitable or usualform, and the neck l) and the mouth 15 may also be of conventional form,as shown, 0 representing an ordinary cork.

st in a partition 3 and channels E E, connecting the interior 1) of theneck D With tl' "tom of the main chamber-lief the botai channels openingat c e. The channc is shown at opposite sides or'ihe bottle, but thesame may be located in. proximity to one auothcr. For instance, thechannel It may be located at it as indicated by dotted lines in Fig. 53.

l urcsents a scaled. filling-inlet, by means of which the originalconten"s are introduced,

The novel internal formations the small quantityindicated in Fig. 4cannot 6o be introduced if the channels are located in proximity, asindicated at E in Fig. 2.

My invention is not limited to the species of construction shown in thedrawings; but

What I claim is- 1. As an article of manufacture, a non-refillablebottle having its liquor-containing chamber permanently closed at itsupper portion and communicating at di llerent points in its bottomportion by means of channels with the mouth of the bottle above saidchamber.

2. In a non-refillable bottle, the combination with a body portion and aneck, of a partition at the neck, a filling-aperture in said bodyadapted to be sealed, and channels ex tending through said. partition toand opening into the lower portion of the body of. the bottlerespectively at dififerent points.
